THINK ABOUT IT!

After reading the story, you are tasked to present the important elements for you to organized the ideas. What will
you use to effectively present this information?

R A H

You are right! Graphic Organizer can enhance your thinking skills in generating ideas, compiling, and presenting
information.

GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS are visual displays of key content information designed to benefit learners who have
difficulty organizing information (Fisher and Schumaker, 1995). These are useful tools in presenting and organizing
information. They are meant to help students visualize clearly how ideas are organized within a text or surrounding a
concept.

Here are some of the helpful organizers you should know.

Concept Map- is a general organizer that shows central idea with its corresponding
characteristics. Concept Map can take many different shapes which is excellent for
brainstorming, activating prior knowledge or generating synonyms.
Flow Diagram or Sequence Chart- is a chart that
shows series of steps or events in the order in which they take place. Any
concept that has distinct order can be displayed in this type of organizer

Compare/Contrast/Venn Diagram-
is used to identify the similarities
and differences between two or more concepts.

Cause-and-Effect Diagram-
highlights the direct relationship
between different events or concepts

Plot Diagram /Organizer - is used to show

the series of events happened in the story

Main Idea

Supporting Idea Supporting Idea Supporting Idea

It is a proven fact that Filipinos excel worldwide in almost all aspects of life. From beauty pageants,
singing and dancing competitions to sports., Filipinos are being remembered for the honour and pride they
persistently bring to their country.

Just recently, the Philippines celebrated the victory of Hidilyn Diaz, the 25-year-old Filipina who bagged
Silver medal in women’s 53kg weightlifting category in Rio 2016, claiming her title as the first Filipino
woman Olympic medalist.

Hidilyn was born on February 20, 1991 in a small village in Zamboanga City, Mindanao. Growing up in a
family of eight, Hidilyn’s childhood was just as colourful as every other child; however, she was not
exempted from problems and life’s challenges. When she was in elementary school, she had to go with her
father, who was a tricycle driver, to sell vegetables and fish. Her family also experienced to have rice with
only salt and soy sauce as their meal. Despite the difficulties she had encountered, the young girl still braved
her way to her biggest dreams as she turned poverty into her greatest motivation to excel in her passion,
which is weightlifting.

Diaz started developing interest in weightlifting at a very young age. Inspired by her cousin Allen Jayfrus,
young Hidilyn used to have homemade barbells made with plastic pipes and concrete weights shaped in tin
cans for her early trainings. As she began to join some weightlifting competitions, someone donated a
barbell to her, which soon broke down from use and has since gathered dust. But Hidilyn began receiving
more donations of barbells and weights as she won in competitions.

Hidilyn’s success in Rio Olympics has inspired many Filipinos, particularly young weightlifters in her
village and aspiring Olympic medalist like her.

During an interview on noontime TV show ASAP last August 28, Hidilyn talked about her views on life’s
challenges. “Ang challenges, parte lang yan ng buhay. Darating ang panahon, gusto mo nang sumuko, pero
kailangan mong lumaban eh, para sa pangarap mo. Ang kailangan mo lang, maniwala sa Diyos, sa sarili
mo, sa kakayahin mo, at sa mga taong naniniwala sayo. (Challenges are just part of life. Time will come
when you would just want to give up but you need to fight for your dreams. All you need (to do is), believe
in God, in yourself and your capabilities, and to all the people who believes in you.)”

 Protecting Yourself and Others From the Spread of COVID-19

You can reduce your chances of being infected or spreading COVID-19 by taking some simple precautions:

Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water. Why?
Washing your hands with soap and water or using alcohol-based hand rub kills viruses that may be on your hands.
Maintain at least 1 metre (3 feet) distance between yourself and others. Why? When someone coughs, sneezes, or
speaks they spray small liquid droplets from their nose or mouth which may contain virus. If you are too close, you can
breathe in the droplets, including the COVID-19 virus if the person has the disease.
Avoid going to crowded places. Why? Where people come together in crowds, you are more likely to come into close
contact with someone that has COIVD-19 and it is more difficult to maintain physical distance of 1 metre (3 feet).
Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth. Why? Hands touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses. Once contaminated,
hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter your body and infect you.
Make sure you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. This means covering your mouth and
nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then dispose of the used tissue immediately and wash
your hands. Why? Droplets spread virus. By following good respiratory hygiene, you protect the people around you
from viruses such as cold, flu and COVID-19.
Stay home and self-isolate even with minor symptoms such as cough, headache, mild fever, until you recover. Have
someone bring you supplies. If you need to leave your house, wear a mask to avoid infecting others. Why? Avoiding
contact with others will protect them from possible COVID-19 and other viruses.
If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention, but call by telephone in advance if possible
and follow the directions of your local health authority. Why? National and local authorities will have the most up to
date information on the situation in your area. Calling in advance will allow your health care provider to quickly direct
you to the right health facility. This will also protect you and help prevent spread of viruses and other infections.
Keep up to date on the latest information from trusted sources, such as WHO or your local and national health
authorities. Why? Local and national authorities are best placed to advise on what people in your area should be doing
to protect themselves.
